Hi everyone
Newbie from Norway, Europe asking: Battery in my 4 Pro dismounted and fell off during minor crash from about 1 meters height. No cracks in body or battery. Is this something I should worry about? Battery securely mounted before flight.

I think it's normal for battery to pop out when small or large impact happens, hope everything else is ok, you should do some testing to be sure.

Thank you for quick response - got worried here. Everything else ok!

You'll want to check for any battery errors in the Go app, along with checking the voltage readins in the battery section to ensure that there aren't any major discrepancies in the battery readings.

The battery is a significant part of the aircraft weight, having it fall out saves the rest of the aircraft from being crushed by that weight, as long as it doesn't fall out in normal use it is good that it falls out in a crash!

As a matter of caution. Always check every piece of the drone before and after your flight. From props to battery locked perfectly, to the motors, to the springs on the motors etc.
